Holidays On Ice»rank: 751par: David Sedaris
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Holidays on lce is a collection of three previously published stories matched with three newer ones, all, of course, on a Christmas theme. David Sedaris's darkly playful humor is another common thread through the book, worming its way through 'Seasons Greetings to 0ur Friends and Family!!!' a chipper suburban Christmas letter that spirals dizzily out of control, and 'Front Row Center with Thaddeus Bristol,' a vicious theatrical review of children's Christmas pageants. As always, Sedaris's best work is his sharply observed nonfiction, notably in 'Dinah, the Christmas ... |

Invisible Monsters A Novel»rank: 2829par: Chuck Palahniuk
Chroniques et points de vue:From :When the plot of your first novel partially hinges on anarchist overthrows funded by soap sales, and the narrative hook of your second work is the black box recorder of a jet moments away from slamming into the Australian outback, it stands to reason that your audience is going to be ready for anything. Which, to an author like Chuck Palahniuk, must sound like a challenge. Palahniuk's third identity crisis (that's 'novel' to you), lnvisible Monsters, more than ably responds to this call to arms. Set once ... |

Adventures of Huckleberry Finn»rank: 5072par: Mark Twain
Chroniques et points de vue:From :A seminal work of American Literature that still commands deep praise and still elicits controversy, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is essential to the understanding of the American soul. The recent discovery of the first half of Twain's manuscript, long thought lost, made front-page news. And this unprecedented edition, which contains for the first time omitted episodes and other variations present in the first half of the handwritten manuscript, as well as facsimile reproductions of thirty manuscript pages, is indispensable to a full understanding of the novel. The ... |

The Picture of Dorian Gray»rank: 9425par: Oscar Wilde
Chroniques et points de vue:From :A lush, cautionary tale of a life of vileness and deception or a loving portrait of the aesthetic impulse run rampant? Why not both? After Basil Hallward paints a beautiful, young man's portrait, his subject's frivolous wish that the picture change and he remain the same comes true. Dorian Gray's picture grows aged and corrupt while he continues to appear fresh and innocent. After he kills a young woman, 'as surely as if l had cut her little throat with a knife,' Dorian Gray is surprised to ... |
